AnnotationIssues around continuity of care run through health and social policy. The NIHR Service Delivery and Organisation (SDO) Research and Development Programme has funded a series of research projects on primary and secondary continuity of care. A programme of research studies, begun in 2001, explored what continuity of care actually means, what service users and carers want in the way of continuity of care, what influences their experience, and any outcomes produced. A report in 2007 reviewed interim outputs from the programme, when some of the research studies were still running. SPRU's study builds on, extends and completes that review. Key findings are presented in this bulletin series, but a full report "Synthesis and conceptual analysis of the SDO's programme's research on continuity of care" (Southampton: National Institute for Health Research Evaluations, Trials and Studies Coordinating Centre) is also available from SPRU (see weblink http://php.york.ac.uk/inst/spru/pubs/ipp.php?id=12...
